Preliminary steps

Before you create a resource model, you must first create an overall design, determine the objectives and functions of your resource model and identify some general specifications. Perform the following tasks to design your resource model:

  1. Gather data for problem analysis to determine what you want your resource model to monitor.
  2. Determine which resources you want to monitor.
  3. Clarify the settings for the resource model you are going to create.
  4. Define the problems you want the resource model to monitor.
  5. Define a list of thresholds and parameters to use as external inputs.
  6. Define the monitoring algorithm (draw a simple flow chart of the decision tree script.).
  7. Define what data you want to log.

After you have performed these tasks, you can proceed with creating the resource model.
